Hey NS this is kind of a claim thread that is funny but I need your help

This is true. I shit you not newschoolers

About 3 weeks ago my friend had his last day in Tahoe before going to whistler, then going back home to Australia where he lives. On his last day skiing Northstar and using his Epic pass we decided it is needed to spray mtn safety because why not? So he grabs his gopro, takes off all his clothes except his underwear and starts mobbin down home run at Northstar. He sprays mountain safety but they stop him, take his gopro, take his pass and talk to him. His plane from Reno to Vancouver departs in 3 hours so he doesn't have time. He didnt have time to reason with them so he just left with a single shit given.

Tl;dr friend sprays mtn safety in underwear, illegally takes his gopro

So how would you go about getting it back? Is security even allowed to take his gopro away? I don't think that's legal or allowed within Vail corp. He cannot get it so it is up to me. Security currently has it and they probably deleted the footage. It would be epic if it was recoverable then I would post that on newschoolers. It would be awesome and would definitely be in the hall of fame for me.

#thanksvail

Help me out NS so I can post the video soon

I have no Idea what vails policies are about that kind of stuff but I would guess its not in their right to take a guest's property. However dealing with them would be such a huge hassle I wouldn't think it would be worth it. let it go and let the good times roll

odds of you ever recovering this gopro are slim to none. mountain safety will have "no idea what you're talking about" and say that "it must have gotten lost on the mountain"

Ya but it's a gopro that belongs to one of my best friends. Plus, I would be pissed if a douchey security guard took my gopro, I'm sure you'd be angry as well, but you were too lazy to get because it's just a gopro which is actually quite expensive

haha all I was trying to say is that dealing with any kind of mountain safety is hell. I like go pros and i dislike douches but sometimes you gotta pick your battles. go ahead and try, im interested in how this turns out.

I will try my best to get the video up on NS. Before he dropped in to spray mtn safety he said "this one is for you vail" and then skied down in underwear. It will be funny to watch

how did they go about "taking" the gopro? Did you hand it over? I'm assuming you/your friend gave it to them.

You and your friend sound like the douches in this situation. Your friend is lucky the guy just took his gopro, i would have said fuck my job and knocked him out, pulled down his underwear and lay him facedown so he got frostbite on his dick.

If you respect people they'll respect you. Act like a little spoiled overprivileged asshat 15 year old and this is what happens.

First of all you guys are dumb as a bag of rocks, who does stupid shit like that? Second of all I'm fairly certain you cant just take someones personal property like that. I would consider it stealing. If anyone ever tried to take my camera rig I'd stab em with a ski pole.

Hey now everyone is stupid every once in a while. This was one of those many times for OP

OP I would just cut my losses and go. They're are going to make you jump through hoops to get it because you were a dick to them. You should have never gave up your go pro. And you never should have sprayed them in the first place.

LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL you and your friend are retards, holy shit. They probably took the camera on grounds of you guys spraying the employee for some assault bullshit or something, which is kinda wack. but for the most part, you guys fucked with the wrong mountain employee, and I find that absolutely hilarious. Get fucked, you douche.

Why would you even hand it over? I would just calmly take off my skis, walk to my car, and drive away. They can clip your pass or ticket, but I wouldn't just hand over my property to yellow jackets.

The referenced post has been removed.


yeah come to think of it, some of these things don't add up. sounds like his friend was doing something incriminating or whatever, and that's why they tried to take his camera. not just because they could have.



and your buddies still retarded for handing his camera over if that was the case.


why do people fucking bullshit their stories when they know they're in the wrong? just accept the fact you both fucked up and move on with life. other days of skiing are worth more than a couple hundred dollars for a camera, and if your buddy feels that's going to put him into a hole, then fucking lol, maybe he shouldn't be buying cameras if he is fucking broke /rant

Just buy a new go pro and while you're at it, learn some fucking respect and quit giving Australians a bad name. Our countries reputation is already tarnished enough in whistler.

Why would you give them your camera? Theres no reason to. The only thing they can rightfully take from you is your pass. If you don't get the camera back it's your own fault for being an idiot.

Oi, I find this offensive.




But if they really did take your friends go-pro and won't give it back to you I'd go to the police. That is if you're sure spraying mountain safety isn't a crime within itself which I can't imagine it being. But if they knowingly took your person property and won't give it back that would be theft.

His buddy sprayed someone with fuckin SNOW, probably really powdery snow too. All of you saying "grow up" blah blah blah are pretty lame, you're taking skiing too seriously.


It would be a different story if he actually hurt the employee by like throwing a chunk of ice at his head or something, I mean its snow.... they won't die by getting sprayed by it.

its not the spraying part, its just the fact a lot of you feel that its totally cool to take out your gripes on employees because you don't like the company running the show.

whatever, that's too serious I guess. being a little douche is much better than actually going skiing to some of you, that's fine. more turns for the rest of us.

Dude I don't spray anyone i'm just saying it's not the end of the world getting sprayed by light fluffy snow.... Personally i'm an employee at a ski hill and I wouldn't take a kids GoPro over that....

Don't be a straight pussy man. It's goddamn water. If a person freaks out when they get some soft water sprayed on them then I would strongly suggest them working in a different industry then skiing.

Didn't you comprehend anything deebie said? It's the physical act of spraying someone. It's the disrespect that goes with it. Additionally, in the white out thread about spraying randoms, the general thesis was not to spray people and don't be a cunt. Exact same principle with op. You're a douchebag op.
